Definitions
- the rare-earth metal in the core member 12 is excited or pumped to generate the output laser beam Lout, and the output laser beam of a single mode remains in the core member 12.
- the probability of errors to occur becomes relatively high (i.e., it is difficult to process all the pumping beam leading optical fibers 10z to have the quite same state of the fiber-joint and to make the position adjustment of each pumping beam leading optical fiber 10z with each pumping beam Lin, so that variations (errors) occur usually), and it will therefore be likely that each pumping beam Lin cannot be made incident efficiently to the laser oscillation optical fiber 10.
- a fiber laser oscillator which comprises a pumping light source for emitting a pumping beam; beam condensing means for condensing the pumping beam emitted from the pumping light source; and a laser oscillation optical fiber for receiving the pumping beam condensed by the beam condensing means to generate an output laser beam.
- the beam condensing means has an incident surface for making the pumping beam from the pumping light source incident thereon and an emission surface for emitting the pumping beam therefrom, wherein the emission surface is made smaller in area than the incident surface. Further, the area of the emission surface is made to be the same as or smaller than that of one end surface of the laser oscillation optical fiber.
- a fiber laser oscillator which comprises a laser oscillation optical fiber formed to be a rod-like shape and composed a rod-like core member extending in a lengthwise direction and a clad member smaller in refractive index than the core member and covering the external surface of the core member, the core member including a laser activating substance; an pumping light source provided with a plurality of beam emission parts for emitting pumping beams; and a light duct having an incident surface for making the pumping beams from the plurality of beam emission parts incident thereon and an emission surface smaller in area than the incident surface and capable of condensing the pumping beams incident from the incident surface onto the emission surface.
- the emission surface of the light duct is made to be the same shape as or smaller than one end surface of the laser oscillation optical fiber and is joined to said one end surface.
- the shape of the light duct is determined by adjusting the dimensions of the incident and emission surfaces of the light duct and the distance between the incident and emission surfaces of the light duct so that when the pumping beams incident on the incident surface of the light duct and reaching the emission surface of the light duct are made incident on said one end surface of the laser oscillation optical fiber joined to the emission surface of the light duct, the incident angle of the pumping beams on the incident surface becomes less than or equal to an NA value representing the numerical aperture of the laser oscillation optical fiber.
- a pumping light source 30 is provided with a plurality of beam emission parts 32 (refer to Figures 2(A) to 2(E)) for emitting pumping beams.
- An end surface of the laser oscillation optical fiber 10 is smaller than a beam emission surface of the pumping light source 30, and thus, with this construction, all of the plural pumping beams Lin emitted from the pumping light source 30 cannot be incident on the end surface of the laser oscillation optical fiber 10. Therefore, a light duct 50 whose incident surface Min for the pumping beams Lin is larger than an emission surface Mout is used to condense the pumping beams Lin to the emission surface Mout.
- the shape of the emission surface Mout of the light duct 50 is made to be the same shape as or to be smaller shape than the end surface of the laser oscillation optical fiber 10, and the emission surface Mout is joined to one end surface of the laser oscillation optical fiber 10.
- the pumping beam Lin may be used instead of the plurality of pumping beams Lin. Even where the pumping beam Lin is singular in number, it can be condensed by the right duct 50 to be led to the laser oscillation optical fiber 10 whose diameter is smaller. It is also to be noted that the emission surface Mout and the one end surface of the laser oscillation optical fiber 10 are not necessarily required to be joined to each other and rather, may be placed to be close to each other.
- the light duct 50 described in the present embodiment takes an approximately conical shape having an upper surface (emission surface Mout) and a lower surface (incident surface Min) and is made of, e.g., a material (quartz glass or the like) having the same refractive index as the clad member 14 and allowing the pumping beams Lin to pass therethrough.
- the light duct 50 exemplified in Figures 3(A) and 3(B) is formed to take a cylindrical shape at an incident neighborhood section 50a including the incident surface Min and an approximately conical shape at an emission neighborhood section 50b extending forward from the incident neighborhood section 50a.
- the reason why the incident neighborhood section 50a takes an approximately cylindrical shape is because a surface which does not reflect the pumping beams Lin is necessary as a portion at which a housing (not shown) for the fiber laser oscillator 1 supports the light duct 50.
- End surfaces of the laser oscillation optical fiber 10 have a numerical aperture inherent thereto (which is called "NA value” and is expressed by a sine (sin ⁇ ) of an incident angle ( ⁇ ) to, the end surface). It is required to determine the shape of the light duct 50 so that the sine (sin ⁇ out) of the spread angle ( ⁇ out in Figure 3(B)) of the pumping beams Lin which are emitted from the emission surface Mout of the light duct 50 becomes equal to or less than the numerical aperture.
- the incident-emission aperture ratio ( ⁇ out/ ⁇ in) is set to 1.0 for example (i.e., where the incident surface Min and the emission surface Mout are the same in the aperture)
- the incident-emission spread angle ratio ( ⁇ out/ ⁇ in) is 1.0, whereby where the spread angle ( ⁇ in) of the pumping beams Lin incident on the incident surface Min is 15 degrees, the spread angle ( ⁇ out) of the pumping beams Lim emitted from the emission surface Mout becomes 15 degrees.
- errors are taken into account, so that the smallest value 0.5 is selected from the incident-emission aperture ratios satisfying that the incident-emission spread angle ratio is less than or equal to 1.4 (in this case, the incident surface Min becomes large as the ratio becomes smaller).
- Figure 4 is an exterior view showing the entire construction of a fiber laser oscillator 1 in the first embodiment, wherein the laser oscillation optical fiber 10 only is shown as a sectional view taken along a plane including a core member 12 therein.
- pumping beam condensing means 35 is used for making the spread angle of the pumping beams Lin small.
- various lenses such as a concave lens, a cylindrical lens, a lens unit composed by combining these plural lenses or the like can be used in dependence on the properties of the pumping light source 30 such as, e.g., the direction and dimension of the spread angle of the pumping beams Lin emitted from the pumping light source 30, the area for arrangement of the plural emission parts 32, and the like.
- the pumping light source 30 and the pumping beams condensing means 35 are common to the first through sixth embodiments.
- the laser oscillation optical fiber 10 there is exemplified one in which the external surface of a clad member 14 is covered with a second clad member 16 which is smaller in refractive index than the clad member 14.
- the second clad member 16 may be omitted in a modified form.
- the aperture of the emission surface Mout is about 1 mm which is the same as that of the clad member 14, the aperture of the incident surface Min is about 2 mm, and the length in the lengthwise direction is about 10 mm (which is the same as that of the light duct exemplified in Figure 3(C)).
- the output laser beam Lout emitted from the end surface on the light duct 50 side of the laser oscillation optical fiber 10 travel to pass through the light duct 50 and is emitted from the incident surface Min to reach the selective reflection member 42.
